Super Hang-On
Platform: Commodore 64
Gametype: Undefined
_________________________

This is a conversion of Sega's popular motorcycle racing arcade game. In this game you race a motorcycle around the world, completing each section of track within a time limit. There are other bikes on the road, but beating this is not important, so they can be thought of as moving obstacles. Each continent is a different difficulty level: Africa is beginner, Asia is junior, the Americas are senior, and Europe is expert. 

This is a very simple and straightforward game, viewed from behind the bike in 2D (so the screen does not tilt with the bike). The right/left controls are steering, and up/down are gear changes. Your cycle is always moving, and your speed strictly depends on the gear you are in, although contact or running off the road slows the bike down.

Description from the packaging:

Super Hang-On is the ultimate trial of man and machine. Not a cross country but a cross continent race, each event requiring a different level of skill. Burn rubber in the hot desert dust, concrete jungles and wide open spaces with the greatest motorcycle racing game ever. Choose the skill level that's best for you. Or, if you're feeling truly inventive, use the course builder to build your own race course and challenge expert riders as you push your turbo-charged machine across the finish line. Feel all of the power and speed of driving 160 miles per hour. If you don't mind getting your leathers dirty, or perhaps even playing dirty, then you've got what it takes to take on Super Hang-On.
